About This Home

Exceptional one-owner modern farmhouse offers timeless architecture, outstanding craftsmanship, and advanced energy efficiency. Designed by architect Susan Regan and built in 2018 by respected local builder McKnight & Partners, this home is sited on a rare double lot in Evanston's vibrant West Village Arts District. The sun-filled open floor plan features 4 bedrooms, 3.1 baths, Marvin Integrity windows, hardwood flooring, high ceilings, and thoughtfully designed spaces for both everyday living and gracious entertaining. The expansive first floor has a gracious entrance hall with an adjacent powder room and walk-in guest closet. The living room is anchored by a gas fireplace and spans the entire width of the home. It captures amazing views of the front magnolia and redbud trees. The chef's kitchen opens seamlessly to the family room and dining area, creating a spacious informal living area. The kitchen is richly appointed with Massa quartz countertops, soft-close cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a spacious walk-in pantry, and a new induction range.

Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is as comfortable as it is beautiful. The en suite bathroom has a double vanity with Carrara marble top and walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a conveniently located laundry room complete the second floor. Every bedroom includes hardwood flooring, custom walk-in closets by Chicagoland Custom Closets, and Hunter Douglas window treatments.
